Despite all the hoopla surrounding the next generation consoles, the most anticipated gaming event of this year is undoubtedly the latest The Legend of Zelda game. Subtitled Twilight Princess, the game looks radically different from The Wind Waker with less stylized, more realistic looking graphics. As ever with a Nintendo title, much of the game is still surrounded in secrecy, but previews have already shown the game's enormous scale with huge areas of rolling countryside for you to ride your horse and battle various evil enemies. Indeed, the game seems more action-focused than previous adventures, both on horseback and on foot. One major new feature revealed in the game is that Link is now able to transform into a wolf. This gives him a whole suite of new features including the ability to "see" smells and access areas impossible as a human (or elf). Despite the greater emphasis on action, the puzzles in the game are even more elaborate than before. A forest dungeon reveals your ability to communicate with animals. You order around a troupe of baboons to solve puzzles and to help battle the level boss. The GameCube could hardly have asked for any better swansong than this, with utterly amazing graphics and an apparently endless range of features and settings. Even with so little still known about it, this is still on course to be the best game of the year. -- Harrison Dent, Amazon.co.uk This preview is based on an incomplete version of the game; features or problems mentioned above may not appear in the finished game.

 Brilliant and amazing game! You will be astounded! September 25, 2008
Put simply I am a huge fan of the Zelda series and I have played and beaten all the games to date. Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past used to be my all-time favorites but Twilight Princess blows them away. This has to be the best game in the series so far in my opinion. The game is long but I love long games. They tend to lure you in much farther kind of like the Final Fantasy games made for the big consoles. I own it for the GameCube but it still is a challenging game since there are loads of areas to explore and tons of things to do. The dungeons are amazing and my favorite is the City in the Sky dungeon. It has absolutely the coolest layout I have ever seen for a typical Zelda dungeon. The items in this game are amazing as well and the boss fights: some are challenging, others are a breeze but are all epic in scale. My final verdict is get this game for the Wii or GameCube ASAP! You won't be disappointed! I sure as hell wasn't! And I will be ready for the next Zelda game!

I got this game like two months ago and i played almost every day and i am still far from the ending, its pritty long game and the graphics are awsome. i never been into zelda games because they are boring to me and cheap, but this one is totaly diffrent from any zelda game out there. You play as link and when you travel to the shadow relm you play as the wolf. When you get further in the game, you get the power to transform into the worlf even when your not in the shadow relm. You can buy bombs, fishing lures, and many other little items. If your a fan of zelda games you will defenatly like this game, and if your not you will be introduced to the best zelda game out there.
One of my favorite games, period. September 13, 2008
I first started playing Zelda when ocarina came out for N64 and my dad got me the game. I loved that game and still do. It's probably my favorite game of any system. However, this comes in at a close second.
The graphics are spectacular against any previous Zelda game, but it is not about the graphics like some games are, which is fine with me.
-- 4 1/2 /5*
The sound and music extremely well done. The soundtrack is pleasing to hear on an ipod or computer by itself. I do have one small thing against it. Ocarina, Majora's Mask and Windwaker all had instruments to create all different songs, and each song had a different function. This game, not so much. You have Epona's Song with the grass, and that's it. The music puzzles were taken out of the game and I liked those.
-- 3 1/2 /5*
The gameplay is spectacular, and probably the best rendition yet. The horseback fighting spots are extreamly fun and addicting.
-- 5/5*
Replay value -- 4 1/2 /5*

I feel games The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess should have more free roaming and allow you to have other things to do even after you have beat the final boss.
A Definite Zelda Game August 24, 2008
This game is definately what you would expect out of a zelda game. The graphics are great and the gameplay is fun. If you havent played it and youre looking for a good game to get into, you just cant go wrong with zelda. This is a game you would want to buy, its a zelda game, you cant really rent it, it must be owned.
It kinda has the ocarina of time feel to it. Maybe its the combination of music, sound effects, and graphics that make you feel like youre playing an actual continuation of the N64 series. Wind Waker was a great game in itself but didnt have that Zelda feel that you saw in the N64 Zelda games. Wind Waker was more of a side note to the series but this game really picks up the slack. I give it a five out of five. Its a great game!
